The Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) caucus in the Legislative Yuan today set up a schedule in front of the assembly, aiming to prevent the confirmation of the meeting minutes on Friday. Yesterday, under the boycott of the green camp, a proposal by the Kuomintang (KMT) caucus for a referendum against the abolition of the death penalty and against martial law was pushed to the second reading. The DPP caucus believes the meeting is invalid and plans to carry out protest actions. Caucus secretary-general Wu Sih-Yao stated that on one hand, they will express their position to President Han Kuo-yu, hoping to propose a solution; on the other hand, they will vigil in front of the assembly, and if there is no response, they will be prepared to counter on Friday.

The Democratic Progressive Party caucus in the Legislative Yuan has started a sit-in in front of the chamber today to block the confirmation of the minutes during Friday’s session.

Yesterday, under the boycott of the Green Camp, the Legislative Yuan successfully blocked the Kuomintang caucus's proposals for a referendum against the death penalty and martial law. What was unexpected was that Speaker Han Kuo-yu returned to the podium at 7 PM, and the Blue Camp took advantage of their numbers to proceed with a second reading of the referendum proposals. In response, the DPP caucus declared the meeting invalid and began an overnight vigil in front of the chamber this morning to prevent the confirmation of the minutes at Friday's session. DPP caucus secretary-general Wu Si-yao stated that today they have launched a two-pronged action: one aspect involves going to Han Kuo-yu's office to express their position, hoping the Speaker can propose a solution, while the other is to maintain a vigil in front of the chamber and respond to any moves on Friday if they are ignored.

Regarding the action of moving forward with the two referendum proposals for second reading, the DPP caucus reiterated that the meeting is invalid. After the morning press conference, DPP members rushed to Han Kuo-yu's office to protest but did not receive a response. At the same time, they are taking turns to sit vigil for 48 hours in front of the chamber to prevent the confirmation of the minutes at Friday's meeting. Wu Si-yao mentioned that today's actions by the DPP caucus have two aspects: besides expressing their stance to Han Kuo-yu and the Secretary-General of the Legislative Yuan, hoping to receive a positive response, they are also conducting a vigil in front of the chamber. If Han Kuo-yu does not address this matter, she stated that they will continue the vigil and will respond at any time during Friday’s session.
